Look at it this way: you saved yourself the pain of watching that 5,000 BNT reach its true value of ((( ZERO ))) slowly by simply accelerating the process.

Most cryptocurrencies have a checksum in their address to prevent mistyping, but
* Ethereum is actually one of few that don't have a checksum. (Er, I think they have a goofy optional checksum but that doesn't really help in this type of case.)
* Some altcoins used Bitcoin's exact same checksum algorithm with no tweaks, so Bitcoin and that altcoin can't tell each other's addresses apart.

Bittrex would have gotten an invalid address error while sending. If it somehow got through, the bnt contract would reject it as well. So did the tokens remain in bittrex wallet, or got stuck in the bnt contract (unmoveable). Bancor team should be able to trace it and rectify

>> No.3403333

>>3403259
If bittrex did something stupid like ignore the non-hex characters of the address, then it could've worked.

It wouldn't be up to the bnt contract to reject anything. By the time the ethereum contract gets called, it's handed the address encoded into bytes. The bytes could have any value and be a valid address.

First I want to start by saying the obvious. Do not kill yourself. It is extremely selfish to put your loved ones through that kind of emotional trauma just because you can't muster up the balls to keep going when times get tough.

If you are still going to do it, I recommend using pills so that whoever finds your body doesn't have to have a burned in image of their friend/family covered in blood or missing a part of their face.
